It's Porch Time Again!

Country Living

Don't you just love this time of year.

Many of you have been enjoying some

beautiful spring weather 

and have already got your

veggie gardens planted

and pots of beautiful flowers

sitting on your patio's decks 

and porches.

Unfortunately for us here in 

our part of Kansas it has been 

unseasonably chilly for the last 

couple of weeks so we're a bit

behind when it comes to 

gardening.

I've got a few potted plants on the 

porches but I think I've lost a

Boston Fern because it got too

cold one night.

HOWEVER...it looks as though

starting Thursday...we are returning

to spring temperatures and that

means 

PORCH TIME!

So..here are a few beautiful porches

and screened in porches

to get you in the mood

or to get you

dreaming.

I love the porch lights on the wall 

of the photo above this one.

We need a new light on our old porch

out back and I think one of those would 

be perfect for the old farmhouse.

I thought this outdoor living space

above was kind of like a porch.

If the roof isn't glass then I 

think I would put 

something up 

there 

for those

rainy days.

I'm still thinking about a hammock

to put between two 

of the trees in the

shade garden.

Hubby says he still would like

to build a screened in porch

here on the farm.

One day.

In the photo above do you see those

two swinging couches?

Wouldn't that be wonderful if they 

were the size of a single bed.

Imagine laying there

reading a book 

until 

your eyes 

get so heavy 

you just fall asleep.

Heaven.

The above photo is more like a 

3 season room but 

I love the cozy look of it.

I bet it would be wonderful

even on a rainy day.

Don't you just love that 

coffee table 

and 

hanging willow love seat!

What a wonderful place to

enjoy a meal.

It's hard to beat living 

in the country.

Southern Living

What a great place to be on a hot

summer day.

Imagine sitting out there reading a 

good book and then when you get

too hot...you just walk out to 

the beach and dive into 

that cool water.

You don't need a beach to cool 

off on this beautiful shady

front porch!

This is another great porch above.

I bet that ceiling fan feels great

on a hot muggy day.

Whether you have a front porch,

back porch, screened porch,

patio a 3 season room

or just a lawn to sit out on...

I hope your weather

is warm and sunny.

Enjoy your week!
